Curling your hair is one of the simplest and easiest ways to change up your look. A iron can help add volume, texture and body to your hair, or give it a stylish curl or wave. But if you’re not used to using one, you may find it a bit daunting. Here are a few tips on how to use a curling iron that will help you get the perfect curl every time.

Step 1: Choose the right size of the curling iron

The barrel size of the curling iron will affect the type of curl you get. If you want tight, small curls, you should a curling iron with a smaller barrel size, around 1 inch or less. For loose waves, choose a larger barrel size, around 1.5 inches and above.

Step 2: Heat up the curling iron

Plug in your curling iron and give it enough time to heat up. Most curling irons take around 5-10 minutes. The ideal temperature for your curling iron depends on your hair type. Fine hair will curl at a lower temperature, around 300-350°F, while coarse hair will require more heat, around 400-450°F. Be sure to read the instructions that come with your curling iron to determine the best temperature range for your hair type.

Step 3: Prep your hair

Before you begin curling your hair, you’ll have to prep it properly. Start by washing your hair with a good shampoo and conditioner. Then apply your favourite styling product to give your hair some texture and hold. Next, use a blow dryer to dry your hair. If you want more volume, use a round brush to create some lift at the roots.

Step 4: Section your hair

Divide your hair into sections. If you have short hair, you may only need to create 2 to 3 sections. For longer hair, you may need to create more sections. Use clips to separate the sections and make it easier to curl your hair.

Step 5: Curl your hair

Take a small section of hair and wrap it around the barrel of the curling iron, starting from the ends. Hold the hair for a few seconds, depending on your heat setting and the thickness of your hair. Then release the hair and repeat the process with the next section.

Step 6: Finish the look

Once you’ve curled all your hair, use your fingers to loosen and separate the curls for a relaxed, beachy look. Alternatively, use a comb to create a more polished and defined look. Finish with some hairspray to hold everything in place.

Final thoughts

Learning how to use a curling iron doesn’t have to be difficult. With these tips and a little bit of practice, you can master the art of curling your hair quickly and easily. Remember to choose the right size of the curling iron, heat it up properly, and prep your hair carefully before you start.
